Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
to Securities of the Issuer.

            Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the
following (capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined, herein have the
meanings ascribed thereto in the Schedule 13D, as amended):

            As of April 25, 2003, BIG entered into a Letter Agreement (the
"Letter Agreement") and a Stock Pledge and Security Agreement (the "Security
Agreement") in favor of Regions Bank ("Lender"). Pursuant to the terms of the
Letter Agreement, Lender has agreed to extend the forbearance period from
January 1, 2003 until January 15, 2004, previously granted in connection with
the Credit Agreement dated as of December 18, 1998 between BIG and Lender (the
"Credit Agreement"). As a condition to the Letter Agreement, BIG was required
to enter into the Security Agreement. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, BIG
delivered to Lender a stock certificate representing 2,000,000 shares of
Common Stock (the "Collateral") registered in the name of BIG as collateral
security for the payment of BIG's obligations to Lender under the Credit
Agreement. As of April 28, 2003, the outstanding principal amount under the
Credit Agreement was approximately $4,753,235. The Security Agreement grants
Lender a lien on the Collateral such that if the financial obligations of BIG
to the Lender under the Credit Agreement are not satisfied, the Lender will
have the right to appropriate or sell the Collateral, subject to the terms and
conditions of the Letter Agreement.

            Under the terms of the Letter Agreement, the Lender agreed to
fully cooperate with BIG in connection with the Merger and in connection with
BIG's performance of its obligations pursuant to the Agreement to Facilitate
Merger. In addition, BIG agreed to use the proceeds from the conversion of its
Common Stock pursuant to the Merger to reduce the outstanding balance of the
loan under the Credit Agreement to such a level as Lender may require. In
addition, should BIG default under the Credit Agreement, as amended, and fail
to cure or eliminate such default, Lender agreed that (i) it shall vote the
Common Stock in the same manner as BIG votes the shares of Common Stock held
by BIG at such time, (ii) Lender shall accept $3.26 per share as the
consideration payable to it upon conversion of the Common Stock pursuant to
the Merger, (iii) Lender shall not transfer or otherwise dispose of the Common
Stock prior to the termination of the Agreement to Facilitate Merger in
accordance with its terms and (iv) Lender shall not take any actions which
would cause BIG to be in violation of the Agreement to Facilitate Merger. The
Security Agreement provides that so long as no default exists under the Credit
Agreement, BIG is entitled (A) to receive or direct payment and distribution
of dividends paid or interest earned on the Collateral and (B) to vote or to
direct the voting of the shares of Common Stock. The Collateral is to be
delivered to BIG upon performance and satisfaction in full of all of BIG's
obligations under the Credit Agreement.

The foregoing summary of certain provisions of the Security Agreement and
Letter Agreement are not a complete description of the terms and conditions of
the Security Agreement and Letter Agreement and are qualified in their
entirety by reference to the full text of the Security Agreement and Letter
Agreement which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.5 and 10.6, respectively,
and incorporated herein by reference.
